Pros (+) The new hot tubs and the nice decor across the lodge
Cons (-) Toilets were never cleaned, bath tub remained clogged the whole stay, the heating in the room was poor, the bed was very hard, sheets were very thin. Breakfast was not bad but some mornings were worse than others
Pros (+) We loved it here. Spacious room, very clean. Good breakfast, free parking, a gym. Highly recommend.
Pros (+) It was a nice room. No bed bugs. Clean. Walking distance to main shopping and restaurants.
Cons (-) There is no pool even though they say there is. You have to go next door to the neighbor hotel and it is dingy and very sketchy hot tub area. Pool is in completely different area. Breakfast was supposed to be until 11:00 am and was cleaned up and put away by 10:30 am. A decent walk from most shopping areas and restaurants. Not worth $400 + for a night. One of the only rooms without a balcony.
Pros (+) Rooms were basic but nice and clean.
Cons (-) The breakfast was chaotic and not very well organized. I had to ask for glasses for juice, mugs for hot drinks, cutlery and bowls for cereal. There was some cutlery behind all the food on the window shelf, but this wasn't really visible when people were serving themselves food. When I did notice the cutlery tray, there were only spoons left. The hot water for the tea was lukewarm. My daughter and ...

Pros (+) Beds were clean and comfortable and bathroom was also clean. Did not stay in hotel much but it was fairly quiet and the free hot breakfast was a nice bonus. The underground parking was secure and warm.
Cons (-) Could do a bit of updating with TV and bedding
Pros (+) Good value, underground parking, decent complementary breakfast buffet, good bed.
Cons (-) The hallways were covered in drywall mud patches so must have been prepping for some repainting or something. Temporary inconvenience but not a sightly interior.
Pros (+) I love how spacious the room is, very clean,the bed is so comfortable. The parking is very convenient and secure.
Cons (-) the breakfast was adequate but modest
Pros (+) Breakfast was fine and the bed was comfortable.
Cons (-) We had sewer water coming up our bathroom sink at 7:30 am and the night before I noticed some black soot in the sink but did not know why. We left our room as soon as possible reported this to the front desk. The manager only offered a 50% return for the room rate when I thought it would only be right to fully compensate us for such an extreme inconvenience. Disgusting!
Pros (+) Run down and outdated.
